We regret the group photos were not perfectly taken. To amend the miss out, Meng Loon managed to merged the photos to make one where every one is in.
This is how it looks. The merger was done by software.
The Borneo Post advertised our photo on the 01 Feb 2009 issue.
Pity the 52 years old is half in - half out. She must be very disappointed. Shall I go and ask them to amend the age to , say, 25 ?
Hehehehehe....

ReUnion 2009
The idea of reunion started a year ago.
We were visiting each others as usual and still found so many were left out.
Time was not sufficient to visit every one.
And as senior citizens ,we don't have that energy level any more. Chon Jin proposed a reunion dinner, gathering, or CNY get together.
This was agreed and accepted, we communicated over e mail and Mei Lee agreed to hold the gathering at her house as we found difficulty in booking any restaurant during the CNY.
We had a list, and started to contact the old classmates, mostly from the 1969 classes.
This list was updated and appeared as below :
We managed to get PenView to cater buffet dinner at a higher cost as we wanted them to provide practically every thing, we just come and enjoy.
The night was 29 Jan 2009, Thursday, the 4th day of the year of the OX.
It eas raining the whole day, some areas were flooded.
However, none was absent. We had Chon Jin and Gek Kiang from Australia. Ai Lang from Singapore, and Azman from KL. Ah Nyuk and wife came from Serian.
Azman is a Datuk, this title was awarded to his hard work and performance by the Government.
On the spot, we had many GrandPa who are also "Datuk" granted by their own hard work too.
Mr. Chew was the only teacher who was able to join us. Mr. sammy Kong and Mr. Sagunam were not available due to other commiments.
Some of us were not able to attend too.
If we check the list, we can spot them.
Mei Lee had entrusted me to collect the $$$ before the dinner - no $ no eat !
Then we started.....
Yum yum yum, eat and talk and joke and laugh .....
After the food, continue to make up lost time.....
Mei Lee showed her album collection of the old photos , all in black and white , but bring back lots of memory.
Meanwhile, Chon Jin reminded me to take down the contacts of those who were left out.
And Azman brought in a Borneo Post reporter to highlight our gathering after 40 years.
The reporter interviewed some of us.
Did U noticed some one was missing ?
The reporter published our "night to remember" on the 31 Jan 2009.
The guy missing in the first group photo was Ah Kueh. So I put up another photo with him inside.
To see more photos, I had invited all those in the e mail list to visit my facebook, but some of your e mail had barred my invitation.
May be you can try click:

New beginning
I started this blog to mark the starting of year 2009 and the events that follow.
The first thing that comes into my mind is my retirement on 19 Jan 2009 when I turn 58.
Prior to that, my colleagues at SALCRA organised a dinner at the Chef's Delicious Restaurant at 3 rd mile neat the Timber Land Medical Center on 20 Dec 2008. Me and my wife were invited.
You can call this a farewell or retirement dinner.
I am honoured and thankful to all those at the dinner.
A big "Thank You" to you.
For the first time, I sang karaoke with my wife.
But not for the rest who were great drinkers as well as singers.
Soon, we will meet in other occassions, my best wishes to you all.
